What your Birth Number or Ming Gua, can tell you about yourself

I've recently been doing more study into Numerology, and finding the correllations between the Nine Stars and their associations quite amazing. I have read that Numerology is based on the Lo Shu Grid, and as this information was given to humanity over 5000 years ago, it is definitely plausible that the two trains of study, Feng Shui and Numerology have their foundations in the one message.

If you are interested in finding out more about the Feng Shui side of things first, I've just uploaded a section of Module 2 of the three manual 'learn at home' set of e-books that I offer through Holistic Therapy Connections for you to have a look at. Enjoy! :)

Birth Numbers and Essential Energy
The year we were born in carries with it an ‘essential energy’. When using Flying Stars Feng Shui we use this information to assist us in placing people in the best areas of a building for sleep and work. Each building has its own energy map based on its orientation and the year it was built. This map of a home can give us information about how to best support the occupants who live here.
The following pages contain interpretations of each Birth Number’s associations, attributes, strengths and weaknesses. There is a positive and negative side to every ‘number’, so it may be that a person shows either a more dominant ‘positive trait’ or ‘negative trait’ disposition in their health and personality. Suggestions for smoothing energy and assisting optimal health are provided.

A diagram of Bodily Associations of the Nine Stars to assist you further with interpretation of personal energy influences is given at the back of these descriptions on page 32 which is included in the downloadable file on the link below.

You will have to find out what your Ming Gua 'is'. Follow the simple formula below to figure that out...
Females: Add the last two digits of your birthyear together and reduce to a single number
16.5.1965
6+5=11=2
Then add this to the number 5
2+5=7
This female person is Ming Gua 7 (or has the Birth Number 7) for Feng Shui purposes.

Males: Add the last two digits of your birthyear together and reduce to a single number (if neccessary)
17.12.1971
7+1=8
Then subtract this number from 10
10-8=2
This male person is Ming Gua 2 (or has the Birth Number 2) for Feng Shui purposes.

When a birthday falls near the changeover of the Solar Cycle, around February 4th the 'Feng Shui New Year' (which is different to the Lunar Cycle Chinese New Year) we have to consult a Chinese calendar to find out when the Solar Cycle began in that year. A common internet 'tool' is a calender converter. This one here is helpful if you need it.
(You will be able to find out which year it falls in by looking at the Zodiac Animal and then calculating the year for that animal)

For example:
A female, born on the 26.1.1973 is born in 1973, but in the 1972 Solar Cycle....so we have to use 7+2 as her birthyear digits. She is therefore a Ming Gua 5, which is also 'tricky' because there Star 5 is not used as a Ming Gua...so you'll need to know that for Females, a resulting Star 5 Ming Gua calculation is moved to a Star 8, and for Males, it is moved to a Star 2. Got that? ;) Of course you do...its easy.
